  1. Coopers – Co-operative Systems for Intelligent Road Safety COOPERS Project Presentation Status: Updated 08/2007 Co-funded by the EC, FP6 IST-Programme

  2. Topics • Vision • Objectives • Work program • Areas of work in Coopers • Roadside data acquisition • Traffic control center – TCC applications • Road side transmitter • On board unit • Information services • Test and demonstration sites • Partners • Contact information

  3. COOPERS Project facts: Coopers – Co-operative Systems for Intelligent Road Safety • Integrated Project of the 4. IST Call, FP6 • Project with 39 partners, coordinated by AustriaTech • Project Budget 16,8 Mio EURO, 9.8 Mio EURO EU - Contribution • Start on 1. February 2006 • Duration of 4 years

  4. COOPERS VISION Vehicles are connected via continuous wireless communication with the road infrastructure on motorways, exchange data and information relevant for the specific road segment to increase overall road safety and enable co- operative traffic management.

  5. COOPERS MISSION To define, develop and test new safety related services, equipment and applications using two way communication between road infrastructure and vehicles from a traffic management perspective. COOPERS will build upon existing equipment and infrastructure as far as possible to incorporate bi-directional infrastructure-vehicle links as an open standardised wireless communication technology. The role of motorway operators in offering and retrieving safety relevant and traffic management information for specific road segments on European motorways based on infrastructure and in-vehicle data will be investigated.

  6. COOPERS Infrastructure to vehicle link Autonomous vehicle systems research (e.g. AIDE, Prevent, Invent, EASIS…) Why is the infrastructure-vehicle communication link important? Vehicle to vehicle research projects (e.g Car2Car consortium..)

  7. Why do we need infrastructure-vehicle communication? • Faster exchange of safety related information from the infrastructure to the drivers • Road safety: precise and situation related real time advice/information improves safety of driving • Related to traffic, weather and road infrastructure status (e.g. road surface, but also network saturation!) • Identification of violations

  8. TCC TISP Infrastructure-vehicle communication (1) • Today’s communication link between road infrastructure and vehicle systems RDS-TMC FCD

  15. Areas of work in COOPERS • Roadside data acquisition • Traffic control center – TCC applications • Road side transmitter • On board unit • Information services

  16. Road side data acquisition Multiple sensors, temperatures, wind speed etc.. RCU RCU RCU RCU RCU FCD center RCU: Roadside Control Unit

  17. TCC applications OUTPUT INPUT Video Wall Safety related Tactical Traffic Info Road side traffic & FCD data Forecast TRAFFIC-EVALUATION conditions (strategic) TRANSFORMER - „single data“ to „data stream“ DATA-EVALUATION (tactical level) I2V OUTPUT Strategic Traffic Info Raw data verification weather historical data Traffic model EXTERNAL DATA

  18. Road side transmitter, I2V I2V Link: • Network Protocol • Standards and integration • Bandwith • Frequency spectrum • Data security • Failure rates • Encryption • Robustness • Antennas • Maximum distance for communication External Interface Controler Interface to TCC

  19. CPU G P S On board unit INFRASTRUCTURE UMTS/GPRS V2V DAB IP based WLAN V2I Bluetooth CPU CPU G P S Display/ Buttons IN-CAR HMI to Driver Internal WLAN- Interface Can-BUS

  20. Information Services - scope I2V Information: If we define services, Which reaction of the Driver is expected? Change from vague recommendations to clear and binding instructions

  21. . Information Services • Change of Distance to the car in front • Change of Speed • Change of Driving-Direction (change lane, take exit, use hard shoulder, no passing…)
